    Allens Croft Road

    Thank you both. That's so helpful. I managed to find (with some difficulty) a family living in the house in 1925. As yet, I've not found this address in the 1921 census. It could be perhaps that the homes were still being built on the road at that time.

    Allens Croft Road

    I'm looking into the history of 17 Allens Croft Road, B14. I know the house is quite old but I've only found this house number in the 1950s+ electoral registers. Is there a chance the house, which is older than 1950s, was re-numbered at some point in time? How would I find this out? Does anyone...

    Greenaleigh Road - Yardley Wood

    I'm not sure which thread I'm supposed to post this in, but I'm looking for any maps of different years of Yardley Wood that cover Greenaleigh Road (particularly where house number 1 is, close to School Road). Does anyone have any or know where I will find some?

    Thomas Broadfield & Sons Boat Builders Sheepcote Lane

    Hi all I've discovered that one of my ancestors was Thomas Broadfield (born mid-late 1700s). I know from researching him that he owned a boat building company on Sheepcote Lane. I wonder, does anyone know where this lane was? I found in the Wrightson's Triennal Directory of Birmingham (1818)...

    Nechells Park Road

    Hi. Does anyone know where 8 Marton Place Nechells Park Road once was? In 1911 there was an Albert Edward Stanley living there. Many thanks

    Bradford street

    My ancestor wasn't living at the address in 1921 or 1922. They were there by 1925 so would have moved between 1922 and 1925.

    Bradford street

    Hi. I'm looking to see if anyone by any chance knows what building used to be at 220 Bradford Street. An ancestor lived there in 1925 but on the electoral register there were other people living at the same address who are not linked to the family. I just want to know if it was one house or if...
